The gift card boxes come in so many designs! These sweet easy-to-assemble layered boxes have a print and cut sentiment for the top of the box (or wherever you’d like to add it), but most important, a simple pocket at the back to hold a standard size gift card.
Here are the quicky instructions for assembly:
Open the file in the software and ungroup once. Separate out the elements so similar colours may be cut at the same time. To Assemble: Fold all the perforated score lines to create the box and form the box by adhering the side tab. Glue the tabs for the bottom flap of the box in place for stability. Gently curve the panel, slide the panel inside the box and insert the tabs in the slots in the side of the box. Repeat for the second panel. Close the top and add the cut and print sentiment. Add the gift card pocket to the back.

I love the gift card boxes, but would like to know what is the best glue to use. I have used the roller adhesive but does not seem to stick. Thanks for any suggestions.
ReplyDeleteTry using Sookwang double-sided tapes. They're really sticky! Happy creating!
DeleteIf I leave the top and bottom open and up can I fold this to mail?
ReplyDeleteIn theory, you could, but there is a good chance the inserts will fall out easily and confuse the recipient, so I wouldn't recommend it!
Deletewhere do you get your glue dot holder and dots? also the adhesive remover where do you find that? Thank you
ReplyDeleteHi Carol! I used to sell them. Probably the easiest thing to do is go to one of the big online retailers like Scrapbook.com or Simon Says and use their search features. And there is always Amazon at your fingertips. I hope that helps! Happy creating.
DeleteI bought the Meow gift box. I am disappointed that the cats are for print. I have never yet to print and cut perfectly. I would have like each kitten cut and glued. Still, a cute idea. Just disappointed.
ReplyDeleteI would have liked to do them as cuts, but the features were so small! I was having a lot of trouble with my cut and print for a while - I used a Q-Tips to wipe the sensor and had immediate improvements! Try it! Good luck!
